I just watched this for the second time, and while I didn't enjoy it as much as the first time I watched it, it was still an awesome match, that everyone should see.

What I liked so much was that everyone had a unique roll in the match and played it perfectly;

Tenryu was the old, tired, pissed off mother-fucker who didn't wanna take shit from anyone. Minoru Suzuki didn't treat the match seriously (it was only Dragon Gate to him, not like, AJPW) and was having fun pissing off his opponents. Magnum Tokyo and Mochuzuki took the match very seriously, as they were in the ring with such top-teir talent and it was a time where they could face off to see who the top star of Dragon Gate really was.

The match started slow. MiSu was playing games with his opponnets, while Magnum and Mochi were having serious exchanges. Magnum kept going after MiSu, cos he was interrupting his clash with Mochi. Tenryu comes in and lays the hurt down on both his opponents. Mochi gets caught up in a kick/chop exchange with him, but TYenryu shows what a verteran he is, coming out the better by catching Mochi's leg (Mochi didn't see it coming, he was too infactuated by strike exchange) and Dragon screwing it.

Tenryu and Tokyo work over Mochi's leg a bit. He makes a comeback and tags to MiSu. MiSu gains control on Tokyo and he and Mochi work him over. The pace really slows down, but the match is still pretty interesting. Tokyo come back with a bulldog, makes the hot tag to Tenryu, and IT IS ON!

The finishing sequence is really awesome. A ton of great nearfalls take place. MiSu and Tokyo have a big slap exchange. Tenryu and Mochi join in. Then one of the most surreal sequences I've ever seen in wrestling goes down. All 4 men start slapping THE SHIT out of each other for like, 2 minutes straight. They get so loopy they even slap their own teamates and the referee. After about 250 slaps go down, they go back to wrestling, but everyone is as tired as fuck.

MiSu is pissed off now, and brawls with Tenryu in the corner. Mochi and Tokyo start fighting again, but this time, they're not getting nearfalls with fancy suplexes or anything like they were before. They were just kicking and lariating each other, going for pins at every oppurtunity. MiSu sees Mochi ain't doin' well, so he grabs him and slaps him across the face. OH SNAP. MiSu points to Tokyo, and Mochi goes crazy on his ass! Tokyo hits a fat lariat though, and a spin kick (while Mochi was on his knees) to Mochi's face for the win. The kick made a sick sound, and Mochi sold it like he was clean out. The finish may have been a bit anti-climatic, but it fit in with the match perfectly, and was just awesome.

So yeah, the match was awesome. I can't describe it that well (the above was just me rambling on ), it's kinda a match you gotta see to believe. I'll try ripping it later, but for anyone who's interested in buying the show, check IVP for it, and check the DVD star rating thread for my ratings on the full show.

Not a MOTYC BTW (I'd give it ****), but a damn fun match, that I recommend watching.

Damn that sounds good, it's in my pile of DG shows from IVP to watch.

I'm curious as to if anyone has seen Brusier Brody vs. Ric Flair in a 2 out of 3 Falls match from 1985? If so, how was the match?

I'll probably will just download it regardless. It's roughly an hour long and it has Flair in it so it's bound to be good.

Yeah, should be pretty awesome.
